T-virus: My first created trick/combo and my first video

[zombiegavins]

So I’ve been throwing for just over 3 months now and I finally had the guts to shoot my first little video, I know the lighting isn’t great but I’d love to know what you guys think of t-virus so any comments would be appreciated (try and be kind and keep the criticism constructive though because I’m stupidly paranoid about my throwing)

Thanks guys and happy (although a bit short) viewing!

T-virus Intermediate YoYo Trick

I didn’t watch the trick

BUT NICE TATS

um…THANKS!

I guess

the trick was hard to watch because of the lighting. usually the best results come from white or yellow or green string on a black shirt with the light source above the camera. the trick was good. simple for an advanced player, but good for someone so new to the game

Thanks for the advice, I was actually using pink string against quite a dark shirt but next time I will try and figure out better lighting (maybe outside), my intention was to create a trick using my current skillset which would give fairly new/intermediate throwers a nice longish trick which should be fairly easy to learn after a couple of months throwing.

i believe that goal is accomplished. it fits basically all you said.

and pink string isn’t too bad, but for some reason (probably lighting) the string didn’t stand out much. i think a big part was that it just wasn’t bright enough. outside may help, but with all you need is a bright room.

A good fix to your indoor lighting situation i have done myself was if you have table lights is to remove the lamp shades and use the lighting from that. Increased lighting galore

Thanks for the lighting advice guys. I will try and reshoot the video (possibly as a tutorial) when I get 5 minutes without the kids about.
